Smartphones Geotags blackBerry, GPS and photos

I found that some of my pictures from the camera are geotagged and this caused problems with sending photos. Unable to send a photo geotagged with BBM, email or normal picture messaging. Curiously, Whatsapp works OK. I uninstalled Google Maps (still have BB Maps) and turned off GPS location services. I can't find a way to turn off geotagging of photos without turning off the GPS. If GPS services is active, it can interfere with the camera because he won't take the shot until the GPS has had a difficult situation. Seems to be OK without GPS for now. What do you think?

I'm running a Bold 9780 with OS 6.0.0.294 with the latest app world and BBM.

Hi BryanR

On the 9780 I, how to disable the geolocation is in camera mode.

At the bottom of the screen, you'll (left to right) the following:

Your photos

Geotagging

Take photo

Flash game

Plug type of

(Roughly)

On the second icon for geotagging to turn it off, the image should be a goal only.   If getoagging is enabled, then it will look like a red balloon.  Simply press this icon until you get the target. (not the target with the waves as it is turn on geotagging).

You shouldn't have a problem with the geolocation in the future.

Although according to the configuration of your phone, and the permissions you gave to Google Maps, which can also be using geolocation by default so check your permissions on this.

I can't understand why you can't email geotagged files even if, as I have no problem with my BB.

I hope this helps.

  • Storm Smartphones TELUS blackBerry, gps location satellite problem help?

    Hi, I had the version of telus to the storm today, updated software, pulled battery.

    as soon as I got it, I tested it on the bbmaps on gps and he finds 10 satellites.  I charged the phone and then I couldn't find more satellites, I tried flying around my car, I tried, just walk outside.

    I had a similar problem with the telus htc touch pro.  It would work once they have activated the phone after an hour or so there problems of location satellite signal, but only once in a little while I might be able to lock.

    I don't know if they did this on purpose so that I have to use their paid browser or that there is some conflict with the gps settings.

    CUS, in this case on 2 different phone, but after that the first hours of the couple the gps is not completely disabled because I was able to lock more but very rarely.

    any ideas?

    Problem solved, anyone with a gps problem should just look for the fix of storm from telus on google

    you will need to change some IPS with the software so that it allows you to lock onto satellite.

    The reason why it worked for me at first is because the phone probably already got activated for the telus network not had the possibility to change the settings on the phone.after that the gps is really limited.  can connect to a gps 1% or less of the time.

    but after that the gps fix can be locked in a few seconds, even indoors.

  • Camera with GPS and Photos shows not all contact information when importing photos in pictures

    I have a Nikon AW130 with active GPS. While previously using iPhotos he always imported the exact location when you import photos. I'm using pictures and nothing appears under location. We are on a cruise on our sailboat and spend 10 months foreign traveling or diving in remote locations, geotagging is important. And I'm not geotag pictures of thousands that we take in a season of navigation manually. The Internet is also either not always available or slow and costly iCloud is not always possible. So what is the solution? Thank you.

    Photos will show the locations only, if the computer is connected to the internet after importing the photos. He needs a database of Apple connection to retrieve the names of places.  Pictures don't show latitude and longitude but a place name. If you have an internet connection, you should see a name of places and a small map in the Info Panel for photos.

    We are on a cruise on our sailboat and spend 10 months foreign traveling or diving in remote locations, geotagging is important

    Names of places in photos are not a great help in navigation.  Most of my photos of sailing is simply display "North Atlantic" or "Sea of Caribbean", such as the location, but the locations of the pins on the map are correct.  And if you export photos Tags the GPS will be integrated. Just, make sure that you enable empbed location information in the Photos of preferences > General.

    You can check if the GPS has been applied by the camera, if you export Photos photos, open in preview. The Info Panel in preview (Tools > Inspector) will tell you the GPS coordinates.

  • Classic classic BlackBerry established and photo transfer

    I couldn't set up my e-mail account on my new classic - what I have to share my new SIM card first?  And although my contacts transferred to my Bold 9900 by Blackberry link, my pictures have not.  What is the best way to transfer images from a Bold 9900 at a new classic?

    Thank you for your answers to my two questions.  My mail server is IMAP and requires advanced configuration and validation which, appears, cannot be done online.  And Blackberry link does not appear to allow me to copy images from the camera to my Bold 9900 at my classic.  If tomorrow I will be going to my ISP about my e-mail account and will copy my images from the camera to my computer and then on my computer to my classic.  Thanks for your help.

  • Configuration of e-mail of Smartphones from blackBerry - username and password

    I got my BB for 3 weeks and I like... I'm a bit paranoid about excessive bills. (Will have to make sure that I understand what functions are covered by the contract and I pay through the nose for.) At least on my point of view.

    I created my gmail email using the email configuration feature. Was actually very easy. However, I don't remember my user name or password to get back in. (all I wanted to do was to add a signature rather than the default "email sent using Blackberry on orange" at the end of emails).

    Is anyway to reset it? If I could at least remember my user name I could recover my password - but I tried every username I can think and not joy. Anyone would be able to suggest something? If this isn't the case, Blackberry would be able to help me? It is not an earth shattering the problem I can get and send emails at the moment. However, I hate not having full access because of my own stupidity to not write the PW and UN and store them safely.

    Any help or advice welcome

  • Security of Smartphones Gmail blackBerry BIS and gmail app

    Hi all

    I have a few questions on the application of gmail (probably not in the right place) and using gmail on BIS (native client for bb so).

    First of all I would like to know if the data I send bis thru using the configuration of the phone messaging is encrypted to the server, as far as I understand the route is blackberry ==> provider ==> BIS ==> google ==> BIS ==> provider ==> blackberry servers, now are my password and mails encrypted during all this? I mean is all encrypted even after she passed through bis?

    Secondly, if anyone knows I would like to know how gmail don't (m.google.com/mail) about encryption enforcement, I see in its parameters always "use secure connection" which should mean its all encrypted according to political right google?

    Finally, if I used the gmail (google) app would always need a BIS subscription or just an internet connection would be nice?

    I want to know is that mail Blackberry can be a little more uncomfortable for me because of the connection is slow, but I still want to be sure, only I noticed, is that newspapers BIS on my account gmail (pretty normal tho).

    I see this has been discussed in the past, but he has never been a definitive answer, and I think (not tried however) this package sniffing brings me one either.

    Thanks in advance

    PS: I hope that you will forgive the noobness, relatively new to BlackBerry, and since my carrier offers mobile internet and BIS in separated packages, I am a little lost.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones accidentally hidden all the music and photos from my phone?

    So I got my blackberry to my computer and I tried to download pictures of her. There was some hidden that I couldn't so I decided to look around and see if I could find them. I have the blackberry from the folder right click after I selected the device from my computer. I then in properties and accidentally selected option check box to see only the hidden, or something to that. Now when I look on the device, all files are gone including camera, music photo, everything is not a single folder, listed in the unit when it is connected to my computer. And therefore all the photos on my camera, even if not connected to my computer and music are lost. Please help me to retrieve all my music and photos that I stupidly lost.

    On your computer you need to make sure it's set to show hidden files.

    For Windows Vista and 7:

    For XP:

    Once you have those who show themselves in Windows and then connect your device to the computer and undo what you did. You should see the files hidden in Windows now and you should be able to remove the checkbox for hidden.

    Hello tooblackish

    Welcome to the Forums of the BlackBerry Support

    Sorry for the trouble, but I noticed this same problem with few other users, who could not send pings to any BlackBerry 10 there BlackBerry 7 devices.

    To solve your problem, I suggest to re-install BlackBerry Messenger!  To do this on your homescreen go to Options > device > application > locate and remove BlackBerry Messenger from there. After deleting to do a battery pull reboot as this device powered on remove the battery wait a min. then reinsert back.

    KB10040  : How to display or remove installed application on a blackberry smartphone   

     

    Finally, after the reboot, use your BlackBerry browser and go to www.blackberry.com/bbmdownload and download the latest available for your phone model. If device reboot prompt do then sign in with your ID BlackBerry even.

    Try it and tell us how it goes.

    Hello and welcome to the community!

    Via the official methods on the device (which is what I'm guessing that you have agreed), it is not supposed to erase your data. But nothing is impossible... where the importance of backups that is initiated by the user, in order to protect their valuable data. Based on what you say, unless you did some other backup before this happened, then your data are now gone and you have learned a valuable lesson (if painful) - there are two kinds of computer users, those who have lost data and those who will be. Backups, like insurance, are not a reagent or an optional activity.
